I’ve been anxiously awaiting this so I was so happy to see it available. A fantastic resource for book nerds. I love that we’re given so much information on upcoming releases. My TBR just grew again and I’m not mad about it. Highly recommend for those looking to see what’s coming. I especially love all the fantastic debuts coming.

I have seen, read an excerpt and requested a non fiction book to read. This Buzz Books certainly gives a great ide on what is coming up soon.
I'm looking forward to reading Maybe You Should Talk to Someone by Lori Gottlieb, a book I may not have discovered without this Buzz Books collection

Great selection of previews in this season’s catalog! I found a few that I knew I wanted to read and a few that I thought I didn’t want to read until I started reading the preview! Thanks for adding some interesting selections to my TBR yet again!

I always look forward to this list because it gives you amazing recommendations at a glance. It also gets you excited about the new and upcoming anticipated reads. With this list, I can plug in the dates into my planner, so I don't miss release dates.

As always, Buzz Books is chock-a-block full of fantastic reads from valued veterans, newbie debuts, and writers who for one reason or another haven't quite been on my radar. So many gems included in this collection, including a favorite writer of mine, T.C. Boyle.

Wonderfully helpful, as usual, in providing a sense of upcoming publications worthy of ‘buzz.’ There’s a new organization and look to this edition and it is quite nice. Regardless of how closely I track publishers information, Buzz Books really provide the inside track. I remain a huge fan.

I have many ways to find new books, but Buzz Books is the BEST of them all. When a new publication comes out, I always put everything on hold to devour them.

The 2019 Spring/Summer Preview makes me so excited for this year'. There are many books that I want to read, but I'm especially excited for The Escape Room by Megan Goldin, Carnegie Hill by Jonathan Vatner, The Better Sister by Alafair Burke, The Favorite Daughter by Kaira Rouda, and The Night Before by Wendy Walker. The excerpts are wonderful, and the summaries give a good context for what I am about to read. I just finished the excerpt for How Not To Die Alone by Richard Roper and it's now on my TBR.

Thank you Publishers Lunch for kicking off 2019 with this fabulous edition!

Another Book Buzz with a great collection of upcoming books! This issue listed several ARC’s that I have (waiting TBR), several more I’ve added to my TBR list and one that I was sadly declined for.

I’d love to see more book covers and excerpts! Mesmerized by the gorgeous cover of “Whisper Man”! Now I can’t wait to get my hands on it.

Thank you to NetGalley and Publishers Lunch for this digital ARC, in exchange for my honest review!

Oh my goodness! There are so many awesome books coming out this year! It's very hard not to hit the request link at the end of each snippet! Okay so I did request a few and wrote quite a few down to look for later on! This is a great way to get exposed to books you normally wouldn't read. This way you get a taste of the way the author writes and if you like it or not.

Another great selection of excerpts in this Spring/Summer Buzz Books 2019. There are so many that i hope to read in due course and i would, if i had my way, read the majority of them. The books that i would love to add to my shelf would be 'The Guest Book, The Last Time I saw You, A Nearly Normal Family, The Snakes, Deep River The Confessions of Frannie Langton and The Long Flight Home. There are others that i would also love to read, but all depends on whether i could squeeze another few books on to my ever growing pile of books.

Excerpts from fiction, fiction debut, and nonfiction titles for books coming out through the Spring/early, early part of Summer 2019. Lots of great titles to look forward to!

Ahh, welcome back Buzz Books! I really missed these issues over the winter period and wondered where they'd gone, so I'm happy they're back with a bang. Once again there is a strong selection of books here, and the excerpts certainly whet your appetite. You can never have too many books in your TBR pile so pick this up for guaranteed additions to your already wildly out of control mountain in the corner!

Many thanks to Publishers Lunch/Buzz Books for my copy.
